How Upper Eyelid Surgery Can Change Your Vision (and Confidence)
Blepharoplasty for Moms at BE Aesthetics, Wichita, KS
Motherhood changes everything—including how you see yourself. For many women, the toll of sleepless nights, stress, and the natural aging process can cause drooping eyelids that not only affect appearance but also impair vision. At BE Aesthetics in Wichita, upper eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is more than a cosmetic treatment—it's a medically-driven solution that can dramatically enhance both function and self-esteem.
What Is Upper Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Upper eyelid surgery removes excess skin, muscle, and fat that can accumulate in the upper eyelids over time. At BE Aesthetics, this procedure is performed by a board-certified surgeon with deep expertise in facial anatomy, ensuring precise results that are both functional and natural-looking.
Benefits of Eyelid Surgery for Moms
Improved Vision: Sagging upper eyelid skin can create a visual field obstruction, especially during reading or driving. Blepharoplasty can restore a full field of view.
Refreshed Appearance: The surgery gives the eyes a more youthful, energized appearance—helping you look as vibrant as you feel.
Confidence Boost: Many moms feel more confident post-surgery, reporting that they feel less “tired-looking” and more aligned with their inner vitality.
No More Makeup Struggles: Excess lid skin can make applying eyeliner or mascara difficult. Post-surgery, eye makeup goes on more smoothly and evenly.
The Recovery Process: What to Expect
Recovery from upper eyelid surgery is typically straightforward. Here’s a simplified timeline:
Day 1–3: Mild swelling and bruising, use of cold compresses, and prescribed ointments.
Day 4–7: Stitches removed (if non-dissolvable), swelling starts to subside.
Week 2: Return to work or social activities.
Week 3–6: Most swelling gone; final results begin to show.
You'll receive specific post-operative instructions from our surgical team to ensure optimal healing.
